Fire crews from Burnham-On-Sea rushed to a Highbridge home during the early hours of Tuesday morning (February 19th) after a blaze broke out.
The crews were called to the fire at River Bed House in Sparks Way at 3.29am.
Two fire appliances were mobilised from Burnham and on arrival they found the building had been evacuated.
“After investigations, the crew confirmed the fire had been extinguished by the occupier prior to their arrival,” said fire spokesman Paul Slavin. “The cause of the fire was a chopping board being left next to an unattended cooker.”
